Ready for To-day's Race.

New York, Sept. 28.-It was i'm
possible to find an u%noccupied dry dock
to day, and consequently the contemplated
examination of the bottom of the Thistle
to see whether or not the paint on her
hull had been scaled could not be made.
She was towed to Sandy Hook to be
ready for to-morrow's race late this after
noon. Il is now claimed that she was
too much down by the head" in yester-
days race. and consequently her ballast
was shifted somewhat to day in order to
trim her better. The Volunteer lay all
day at her anchorage off Bay Ridge. She
will sail to morrow with the same equip
ment and the same trim as those of Tues
day. It is said that in case the Thistle
is defeated a challenge in her behalf for
another race will be issued.
Old salts predict clear weather and a
brisk northwest wind for to morrow.
Government predictions, however, are for
a southerly wind of from six to fifteen
knots, with a tendency to increase after 10
o'clock, with wet weather. The course to
be sailed over tomorrow will be decided
by the regatta committee. To morrow
will be twenty miles to windward and re.
turn, according to the direction of the
wind, starting from either Sandy Hook or
Scotland lightship as will best enable the
committee to lay the course advantage,
ously.

Regarding the Anarchists.

WASHINGTON, Sept. ga reporter
of the Associated Press called upon Mr..
Justice Field, of the United States
supreme court, to-day, and asked if any
application had been made to him in be-
half of the anarchists. The Justice re-
piled that no application had been made.
IF an application were made" he said,
ito the Judge of the supreme court in the
city of Washington, other than the one
from whose circuit the case should come,
1t would be referred to the Judge of that
circuit-in this case to Mr.. Justice Har-
lon-or if he were not in the city, then
to the chief justice. and only in the alb
sence of these two would a justice outside
the circuit act.
Chief Justice Waite and Justice Mat
thews, when called on tonight, said they
had received no application in the cases.
They expressed the same views as justice
Justice Harlon. Both Justices also said
preme court on the ground that the con-
volved. The fact that the trial was one
of extraordinary importance, they said,
could have no bearing on the question of
the courts jurisdiction over the case.
What is the meaning" queried the
reporter. of the dissenting opinion of
Judge Hoffman, of California, in the
railroad commission case2' Il am sur
prised." replied Justice Field, that
Judge Hoffman and Judge Sabin, district
Judges, were invited to sit on the bench
of the circuit court when the case was
argued, although they were not legally
members of court. When the decision
was rendered Judge Hoffman was not on
the bench and could not, according to the
practice of the federal court, dissent af-
terward. If he had desired to dissent. it
was his duty to dissent then. and to offer
a dissenting opinion a month afterward
can have no legal significance, and is only
a piece of legal mpertinence.

Massachusetts Republicans.

BosToN, Sept. 2S.-The main topic Of
discussion among the delegates to the Re-
publican state convention, which began
here to day, was the nomination for the
attorney generalship. It seemed from the
outset to be practically settled in favor of
Hon. Albert Il. Pillsbury. The choice for
chairman of the convention fell with great
unanimity upon Francis Rockwell, of
Pittsfeld.
The platform wa adopted without one
dissenting voice. 1t lauds the protective
tariff; recommends a reduction of internal
revenue taxation; asks congress to care
fully consider the tariff on sugar and to
improve the administration of the customs
laws; condemns the suppression of Re-
publican votes in the Southern states and
election frauds in Northern cities; de-
mands further extension of the national
civil service law; arraigns President Cleve-
land Tor an array of shameful dismissals
and disgracelul appointments and for en-
dorsing the spoils machine in Maryland
and elsewhere; declares that the Demo
cratic party in Massachusetts stands with
that party throughout the country in the
support of the doctrine ito the victor
belong the spoils;" demands a cessation
of the compulsory coinage of silver; asks
for the passage of a national bankrupt law
and protection of the fishery interests
without the yielding of rights; demands
the compulsory enactment of progressive
temperance measures and favors submis
sion to the vote of the people of the pro-
hibition amendment to the constitution.
After the adoption of the platform Sen
ator Hoar took the platform and in a brief
address nominated Oliver Ames, of Eas-
ton, for governor. The convention at
once nominated Ames by reclamation.
For lieutenant governor, j. Q A. Brack
EFT; secretary of state, FL. B. Pierce, and
state treasurer, Alanson w. Bard en-
cOuntered no opposition. A. j. Water
man was nominated for attorney general,
after which the convention adjourned.

Huntington Accused of Falsehood

SAN Francisco. Sept. 28.-Mrs. Col
ton, the widow of Gen. D. D. Cotton, in
IN interview to-day makes a strong denial
of the statement made a few days ago by
@. P. Huntington before the Pacific rail
road commission in New York in regard
to letters written by him to her late hus
band. She accuses Huntington Of false
hood in saying the letters were stolen
Mrs. Cotton uses the following language:
agent who offered him the letters. IF he
would name anyone instead of indulging
in mere buster about agents the false
hood could be proven instantly"

Miners in Battle Array.

ORGANIZING NATIONAL ASSOCIATION.
A gigantic scheme tor the general
reorganization of all the coal miners
and mine laborers Of the United States
under one banner is now being accom-
plished by the Knights of Labor. 1t
will be the most powerful and far eI-
tending association of miners ever
known in this country, and is expected
eventually to absorb and supersede the
present organization among that class
of workmeu The schemr originated
in the mind of William ii. Bailey, q
member of the General Executive
Board of the Knights, and has been
entertained by him for twenty years
past. Mr.. Powderly and the other
members OF the General Board have
authorized the present plan and every
indication points to its iulfilment
Fourteen States and five Territories
are nov embraced in the organization
and future developments may extend
it's scope still further. All the mining
sections OF this State, both of anthra-
cite and Oiiumlnous coal, have been
though quietly csnvas.ed within the
last three months except the Councils
vile coke region, aud the men in that
locality will be organized during the
coming we k. The bituminous coal
fields of Cumberland, Pocahontas and
Elk Garden, in Maryland and West
Virginia, have been secretly visited by
special committees within the past ten
days, aud the work of organization
there is said to be nearly completed
In two of the far Western territories
no organization has yet been perfected
but they are included in the great pro-
ject aud, il is understood, will be al
tended TO in the near future.
The whole organization will be
known a. thr National District Assem-

from California, wore the largest or
the finest or the greatest number Of
diamonds.
The Marine band which furnishes
music at White House receptions, is
enthusiastic in praise of the present
Administration. Mr. Cleveland feeds
them well and Is socable and kind to
them aud Secretary Whitney is a man
Just after their own hearts. When
they got through at the Presidents on
New Years day, the Secretary of the
Navy took them over TO his house to
play at the reception there He paid
them $5 apiece for their services, and
the leader $40. This was the first time
they ever received any remuneration
from a Cabinet officer OF any other
Govt official. They say the worst
treatment they ever had was under
President Arthur, when they were sent
home at two or three O'Clock in the
morning with their stomachs full of
oyster soup and beer. Blame was not
fixed upon Mr.. Arthur himself, but
upon his steward.
The far famed Marine Band is COM
posed of thlrty-eight men, and the sal.
aries paid tn NJ a'e S3S per month for
first class talent, S24 for second class,
and S2l for third class The leader
gets about $1,000 year. This and
the Yves, Poiut band are the only two
bands, as such, that the Government
supports. Although the Marine band
enjoys some perqrisites, and good
many privileges and honors, it com.
plains that its salaries are too small,
and that first rate men cannot be kept
at the wages paid by the Government.

In last weeks Sentinel the following
sentence appears: "P,ddling out the
mercantile lis was feast upon which
they (the county commssioners) could
fatten at the expense Of the peoples
money"
What does this meant If it is an
iusinuatiou that the papers that have
printed the mercantile list have paid
the commissioners or appraisers or any
body else bonus for the privilege, it
is utterly false so fan as the COLUMBIAN
is concerned. If the Sentinel knows
of any one who has offered or paid
anything for the privilege, it owes it
to itself and the public to tell all it
knows about it. If it cannot substan-
tiate its insinuation, it must confess
that the inference which it intends
shall be drawn from the above, is a
very unjust one, b0th to the officials
and the newspapers.

employed in regions where the same
kind of coal is produced, or which is
shipped to the same market, are group
cd together in separate districts. The
twelfth and thirteenth divisions have
not yet been organized, nor has the
fourth, which will embrace the coke
miners of this State. The aggregate
IL uembership of the whole body Is now
estimated at 100000 men.
The grouping of Pennsylvania dis
tricts is as follows: Division l EN-
braces the miners of all the anthracite
coal regions of Pennsylvania. Divis-
ion 2 embraces the miners of bitumi-
nous and emi-bituminous coal in the
Snow Shoe, Clear6eld and Broad Top
regions of Pennsylvania the Cumber
land region, Maryland the Pocahon-
tas region OF Virginia, and all the
mines in West Virginia and Western
Pennsylvania shipping coal to the same
market. Division embraces the
miners ir the bituminous regions of
Sullivan, Bradford, Tioea, Lycoming,
Cliuton, Cambria, Elk, MEX IAN, Mer-
Ger and Butler counties of Pennsyl
vania, and all the low-grade divisions
of Pennsylvania. Division 4, not yet
organized, will include the coke miners
of Connellsvlle, Scott1ale and other
coke regions of Pennsylvania. Divis
ion 8 embraces the miners of bituni-
nous coal along the Monongahela,
Youghiogheny, Kanawha and Ohio
rivers as far down as the mouth of tn"
Kauawha. Division 6 embraces the
miners of the bituminous coal in the
whole of Ohio and all of that portion
of Western Pennsylvania shipping coal
westward by rail.
These divisions will all b. subordi-
nate to District Assembly 1876. They
will be otficered and governed after
the manner of local assemblies of the
Knights of Labor. In most cases the
div isions include many local assemblies
No local assembly or division will b.
allowed to cause any st"ppage within
the function of the National District
Executive Board
The purpose of the organization is
not an immediate demand for higher
wages or shorter hours, but to establish
mutual understanding for concerted
action in other directions. in case of
a demand, it is stated, no move will be
made which is not thought to be
reaonable. If demand Is made in one
division it will not necessarily affect
anv other.
One of the main reasons for dividing
the organization is understood to be
the avoidance of trouble in one region
by the men employed in other ada
cent regions as heretofore
District Master Workman Bailey
was seen on the subject of the great
organization. He said: "This i
simply a gathering together for the
first time uud II one head for beit
government of all the miners and mire
laborers OF the country who belong to
the Knights of Labor, for mutual pro
lection and beneft. 1t is the intention
of the founders of this district and tn
officers of all the sub divisions to abcl-
lsh strikes by having perfect orgaui
zat,on. The men being under thoroug
discipline, when grievances arise WE
can present them to the employers
in the region producing that kind of
coal and have th-m adjusted readily.
All complaints, or evancrs aud differ
cnces must be srbmitted to arbitration
aud not ended by force as heretofore.

Cassidy Steps Out.
THE CORPORATIONS SUITS BEoUEAThED
TO THE INCOMING ATTORNEY GENERAL"


TO THE INCOMING ATTORNEY @ GENERAL.
Attorney General Cassidy's prosecu-
ton of the commonwc ,lth's suits
against the coal and trunk line pools
came to an end Saturday, and the re-
sponsibility for continuation or sus-
pension of the raid goes as legacy TO
the new law officer of the state. The
examiners and lawyers interested in
the cause, met at 10 o'cl ok in the
morning in parlor & of the Continental
hotel, Philadelphia, for the last time.
Mr.. Cassidy, after few matters were
settled, made formal announcement of
the closing of his case, and said; "We
have come to the point where we shall
not call any more testimony. In view
of tie fact that my official term will
expir, on the swearing in of my sue
cessor on next Tuesday, it is manifest
that even were the case closed j would
not have the time or rather the oppor-
tnnity, to argue it. 1t therefore seems
reasonable and proper that we should
submit the testimony we have to the
incoming attorney.general that he may
decide whether he will go on and take
further testimony or proceed to argu
ment with the testimony already pre-
sented. |, therefore, ask the Examin-
ers to suspend taking further testimony
until they receive notice from the new
Attorney General After this state
mert, Mr. Cassidy went among the
lawyers ard bade them sort of affec
tionate farewell, and while everybody
was in good humor and harmony pre-
va led all around the party separated,
and so, for the time at least, an end
came to the battle of the state officers
against corporate power.
